Looking back on a very close and trustworthy cooperation with Lazarus since 1980.
Krakow - Cologne The Polish Cardinal, Franciszek Macharski died at the beginning of August at the age of 89. Since the Communist era in 1980, he had been an experienced and valuable advisor to the Humanitarian Grand Priory Europe (GPEU )and its Lazarus Hilfswerk (LHW) during the organization of the Poland Aid Program in over several decades. He represented the Diocese of Krakow from 1978 to 2005. On June 30, 1979, he was elevated to the rank of Cardinal by Pope John Paul II. After the election of Pope John Paul II, Macharski became his successor as the Archbishop of Krakow. He was one of the outstanding figures of the Polish church. In 2009, he was appointed a Grand Cross Chaplain of the Order of St Lazarus. The Humanitarian Grand Priory of Europe is thankful for all his assistance on their behalf.

Only a few people in Malawi can afford to see a doctor for medical care or treatment, so the work undertaken by the AHU of the Military and Hospitaller Order of Saint Lazarus, under the direction of Sandor Balogh CLJ, is of vital importance.
The medical mission volunteers, Dr. Edina Palinkas, Dr. Anna Jakkel and the AHU`s coordinator, Dorottya Horvath, are kept busy day and night helping to heal the sick.
